Had dinner with some female colleagues last Friday night.We all came out with the same conclusion:MALE seniors are more willing to teach FEMALE assistants. They are also very much LESS willing to teach MALE juniors (well, unless they are good friends). It's weird that guys are expected to be more independent lol. Even thought everyone's saying 男女平等, some mindsets just cannot be changed so easily.Like, men are suppose to open doors for ladies. Men should not allow ladies to carry heavy stuff. (learned it from a manager lol, when he saw me carrying many many files in my 2 tiny arms) Men are suppose to drive. (even though we girls have cars)I am lazy to think of others, wanna watch Slumdog Millionaire now (yes I have yet to watch that.....), a little lazy at the same time, it's already 2am *yawn*. Shall see my mood in 5 minutes.*this is a sheduled post which I wrote on Saturday night...which explains why I was still blogging at 2am.
Got a job offer from my previous employer today.To maintain their accounts.Basically just to continue what I was doing previously.We had a reeeaaally loooooong chat, from 3.30pm to almost 8pm!!!!Yes I have a chatty boss =.="He does talk a LOT.In the end they(with his wife) had to leave cuz he was having a bad migraine (from talking too much?).They did not leave me with their offer yet they asked me how much I would like to charge them!!Wth, I don't know the market rate lah!So I gave a deep thought in it. From what they described to me, I guess the workload won't be too much or too complicated to handle (with a few exceptions). I can probably take one or max two days a month to do it.I almost wanted to say yes to them. But I started asking myself;Does the money worth my precious time-off?I had to leave home at 8am everyday, face the morning rush hour, WORK, quick lunch, WORK, leave work at 8pm-10.30pm-ish, have dinner at 9pm-11.30pm-ish (turning into a fat lady soon), sleep, wake up 7am....OMG so routined, so lack-of-personal-time, so robotic.What to do, I have sold my soul to the Company for 4 years. I would love to help them as a friend, but on the other hand, I really treasure my weekends ever since I started working full-time. OK, me have made me decision.Will reject them by sms tomorrow lol.
memang bo eng to update this blog!don't even have time to blog about my special day, which I always do for the past few years.oklah, I think 2 years only.but still..will try to update, this weekend!see whether my inspiration will 'come' or not...
Having worked long hours for a few weeks, I finally get to breath since Thursday. I LEFT THE OFFICE AT 5.30pm on THURSDAY! WOOHOO!Yes, we get to go back at 5.30pm sharp too XDBut you know what, we had lunch at almost 4pm that day. Why?Rushed to submit some files to be QPR-ed. We are the 'lucky' ones whose files are chosen to be examined by partners from other branches. Sigh. Glad it's over. Now I'm only left with some wrapping up to do.My target for this coming week is to go back at 5.30pm everyday!! LOL.Erm..probably not everyday. Everytime I plan to go back early, something surely comes up to disrupt my beautiful plan.Perfect.So..Official Target: 6.30pm
